Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Stephanie and I can't wait to meet you and your dog. I'm a passionate, experienced and bilingual pet sitter (I speak spanish) and I'm here to provide excellent care for your furry friends. First off: I just love dogs! I have always been a dog owner and I consider my dog my child. I recently had a baby and am taking some time off of work to spend more time with my child. In the meantime, I decided to venture into dog sitting in order to help people who have loving pets. I love taking in new pups, and you can be rest assured that you and your pup will be completely taken care of during our time together! I have pet sat for friends and family in the past, and have always enjoyed the experience. When I was in high school, I also volunteered at the animal shelter, which was a truly rewarding experience. I used to help give pups medication as well as bottle feed newborn puppies. It taught me a great deal about administering proper care to animals, which I bring to every sit. My home is very welcoming to new pups. I am home all day, which means that I’m a great fit for pups that are used to having a human presence around them during the day. I do have a dog of my own, Akira Blu, who is always very sociable and ready to play at a moment’s notice! My baby girl also loves to watch pups play, so there will never be a dull moment in our house (except for naptime!). I also live with my husband and mother-in-law, so someone will always be there to help step in with an extra set of hands if need be. I currently live on the southeast side of San Antonio. My neighborhood is quiet, safe, and very family-friendly. I love that everyone in my neighborhood has been around here for years. I have lived in this neighborhood for seven years and have loved raising my dog in this neighborhood. It’s just a great place to be!

My beagle mix had a great time with Stephanie. There was indoor and outdoor access, and plenty to explore. The household is busy and fun, and there was plenty of loving attention. Stephanie was very quick to respond to my request for a Meet-n-Greet, and that went really well, getting a chance to meet the whole family. Stephanie provided updates and pics during the stay, so I could get a quick smile at my dog while I was away. Most important, my girl was very happy and tuckered out at the end of her stay. Stephanie is wonderful.

Stephanie was awesome! She responded quickly to our messages, and was flexible with our last minute booking. Millie loved her stay, our dog is normally really scared at new places but she was so happy at Stephanie’s she didn’t want to leave. I would highly recommend booking with Stephanie!

Stephanie is so amazing we had an event come up last minute and needed a sitter for our baby boy, she took him in and updated us on how the stay was going. Thank you Stephanie ?

Steph is so good with her baby Akira aka her dog. She spoils and loves her so much I know she'll treat any other dog like her own. Akira has always been very well taken care of with visits to the vet, toys, and daily walks... I would most definitely trust Steph to dog sit for me!

Information Stephanie D. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?

A typical day

I love to stay active and make sure that I get plenty of exercise throughout the day. Raising a child can be a very taxing experience, so going out for walks during the day is my special treat to myself! When we’re not outside getting a walk in, my Husky Akira is always happy to have some playtime. She’s very friendly and loves to meet new friends!
